Description

Print + Digital Bundle - This bundle includes both print and digital versions of ISBN and 9781543858518 and 9798889061649 as well as an access code to Write.law – Legal Writing.


The Sixth Edition of Legal Writing and Analysis provides a clear guide to developing legal writing and analysis skills for novice legal writers. In a sequence that mirrors legal practice, students learn to read and analyze the law; write the analysis of a legal issue; and compose office memos, e-memos, professional correspondence, and briefs. The book introduces students to various forms of legal reasoning including rule-based, analogical, policy-based, principle-based, custom-based, inferential, and narrative, complete with exercises.   

A comprehensive companion to Basic Legal Research or comparable text, Basic Legal Research Workbook provides a well-chosen range of exercises and assignments to familiarize students with fundamental research sources. Logically and intuitively organized, BLR Workbook’s coverage mirrors the research sources studied in first-year Legal Research courses, with an emphasis on digital resources while retaining the option to utilize print sources. Research exercises are presented at graduated levels of difficulty, from guided research to open research requiring more advanced research skills. The digital research exercises progressively instruct students on the latest interface features of commonly used databases. Print options cover multiple jurisdictions, reducing the demand on single library sources. This Sixth edition retains all of the types of problems, formatting, and coverage that instructors have found helpful in prior editions, but with updating to reflect the most current digital resources.

Write.law - Legal Writing features bite-sized videos and interactive practice that put students in the driver’s seat, developing their writing and research skills with real-life simulations and carefully designed assessments.
